Description

Begin your morning at Baan Talay Samui, where you are welcomed with a refreshing herbal drink and traditional snacks. This immersive experience introduces you to the traditional wisdom of Koh Samui’s people, passed down through generations. Learn the art of making hot-extracted coconut oil, a process that is at the heart of the island’s culture and daily life. After your welcome, roll up your sleeves and dive into every stage of coconut oil production. Start by peeling and splitting fresh coconuts, then grate and press the coconut flesh to extract rich coconut milk. Under the guidance of local hosts, simmer the milk in a pan to reveal pure coconut oil. You’ll take part in each step, gaining insight into the skills and stories that have shaped Samui’s way of life. Once the oil is ready, apply your freshly made coconut oil to your feet and enjoy a relaxing foot massage by walking on coconut shells, a local wellness tradition. Stroll through the garden to discover a variety of local plants and herbs, learning how they are used in daily life. The activity concludes at midday, leaving you with new skills, a sense of connection, and time to explore more of Koh Samui on your own.
